My husband and I are considering a trip to Ottawa and Montreal in August or September with our one year old son. What are some must-see/must-do activities in either city? Does anyone have any hotel and restaurant recommendations (or, just as importantly, places to avoid)?
We have about a week of travel time, and would be driving from our home in Western NY (about 5 hours from Ottawa and 6 from Montreal). Does one city deserve more time than the other?
Thanks in advance!
Ottawa and Montreal

We've been to Ottawa once and Montreal many times. Ottawa is a very pleasant, scenic city with the best museums in Canada. The downtown is clean, safe and somewhat sterile. Byward market is the city's liveliest area, with lots of cafes, shops and restaurants. The must do's that I can recall are the museums, the changing of the guard, and the great bicycling trails. We stayed at a very nice b&b in the Sandy Hill neighborhood.
Montreal is considerably larger, a melting pot of many cultures but with a strong French influence. The biggest attraction for us to Montreal is the French and international culture found in the dining, shopping and just strolling and biking the city. In the warm seasons there is always some kind of festival going on. Notre Dame, the Botanical Gardens, the Old City and waterfront, and the Plateau area cafe/restaurant scene are the things not to be missed. As for places to stay, Old Montreal is the most picturesque and tourisy, the downtown is the business and shopping mecca where the big chain hotels are. The Plateu is sprinkled with fun, inexpensive b&b's. Montreal is a fairly safe city, but the one area I might want to avoid for lodging is the St. Catherine area between St. Laurent & St. Denis as it's a bit seedy. However, above St. Catherine, both St. Denis and St. Laurent are two of the most interesting streets in Montreal.
In my opinion, Montreal would deserve more time than Ottawa, but they are both wonderful places. I think Ottawa & Montreal are more than an hour apart. -

Zootsi summarized what would also be my recommendations very nicely. We visit Ottawa quite frequently and yes, the Museums and the Byward Market are top attractions. We particularly enjoy the Canadian Museum of Nature, the Museum of Civilation and the National Gallery. The Canadian Parliament Buildings are quite stunning with their Neo-Gothic architecture and setting on a high Bluff overlooking the Ottawa River. Tours are popular but may not be appealing with a one year old. For a change of pace, the relatively short drive across the river into Quebec to visit huge Gatineau Park is very pleasant - there are wonderful scenic outlooks on the high bluffs at the "top" of the park as well as picnic areas and nature trails. The adjacent Village of Wakefield with its historic covered bridge and scattering of cafes and small shops can also be a pleasant diversion.
We always stay in one of the many Suite hotels which are spacious (which we appreciate) and many are located in the downtown area allowing us to leave our car in the garage and walk to most of the attractions. Albert at Bay, Minto Suites, Residence Inn are a few examples.
Montreal we visit every 2 or 3 years. In addition to the attractions mentioned by Zootsi, our grandkids really enjoyed the Biodome with us a few years ago (adjacent to the very nice Botanical Gardens) although they were a little older than your one year old. On a separate visit without kids we enjoyed the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Old Montreal is charming and bustling. Montreal dining is fabulous. -

Traveling with a one-year-old may influence your activity options but Ottawa has many wonderful things to see and do. If you are wanting a real Canadian experience then try to go before the Changing of the Guard is over. As well as the above mentioned Gallery and Museums, there is a Science and Technology Museum that caters to children though one is still a little young. There are trains to climb on and other fun stuff.
As well, there are two boat tours available: The Rideau Canal which is a UNESCO attraction, and another on the Ottawa River. Both have tickets available at confederation Square in the city centre.
The canal has lovely paths along both sides and you could rent bikes (and I think a child's pull along)there as well (under the bridge by the conference centre)
The Byward Market is my favourite place to wander around, from Sussex with its galleries to the farmers markets in the middle and lots of shops, restaurants and patios.
Elgin Street is also lively in the evenings with restaurants and bars but usually not rowdy.
Ottawa is a very safe and has a compact centre so easy to walk around. I would not describe it as sterile but it is clean with many beautiful historic buildings. The area of the hotels mentioned is where most government building are so quiet in the evenings but not touristy but well within walking distance (5 blocks). If you can afford it I would stay at The Weston which is ideal and much more central. There is also a Novatel and Holiday Inn, with one block from the centre but I cannot speak to the quality of them. -

BTW - Montreal is 2.5 hrs drive from Ottawa.
Matt54: I love Wakefield though a good hour from Ottawa.
FYI - Have you stopped in Old Chelsea on the way there? Both are in Quebec. There are a couple of amazing restaurants there. Les Fougere and D'orlee du Bois.
Perth, (pop. 5000) an hour in the other direction (west) which has been voted prettiest town in many magazines. The surrounding area, Lanark County is well worth a daytrip out of Ottawa. -

Your one-year old son will enjoy the Children's Museum which is part of the Canadian Museum of Civilization across the river in Gatineau. Lots of hands-on activities for kids there.
But do take the time to visit the rest of the Museum, especially the First Nations' Hall and the Canada Hall. -

If you have a car and GPS, you could venture towards Laval and go to centre de la nature and funtropolis

IMO - Ottawa is more kid friendly esp. for a one yr old.
Parliament Hill
Sound and light show every night
Carillon concert every day at 11:00am
Changing of the Guard daily (June -Aug)@10:00
Meet a Mountie
Behind Centre block on the west side is the Cats of Parliament Hill, cat sanctuary. The original occupants were the official mousers in Parliament until they were "fired" in the 60's. There is construction but there is a pathway and signage to the cat condos. If you have trouble, ask one of the Mounties.
Speaking of Mounties - the Musical Ride is not in town but you can go out to the RCMP stables and meet the horses. It's East of downtown, very close to the Aviation Museum,which has a fabulous main hall with planes suspended from the ceiling.
Not downtown but close to, there is the Agriculture Museum located on the Experimental Farm. It's a working farm in city. The animal Barns and tractors are very popular with the kids. There is also the Ice cream Festival on Aug 11th
Close to Experimental Farm is Dows Lake, there is a pathway that runs along the canal from Dows Lake to the locks. It's a nice stroll.
If you're interested in Farmers Markets - The Ottawa Farmers Market is on Sundays at Brewers Park, near Carleton University.
A bit west of downtown the War Museum, one of the halls has all sorts of jeeps and trucks and tanks.
Also heading west from downtown is Chinatown (along Somerset) There is a new Chinese arch that was a gift from China. It's stunning. Lots of good places to eat.
Where to stay. I would go with one of the Suites hotels downtown.
Food recommendations - not knowing your budget or tastes, it's hard to offer any constructive suggestions - You can check out www.capitaldinig.ca (Anne DeBriesy used to be the restaurant reviewer for the Ottawa Citizen) or www.ottawafoodies.com - you can search restaurants by "tag" Or Urbanspoon for
restaurant reviews.
One place that is on the don't miss it list is Art-is-in Bakery. Near Chinatown/War museum. Fabulous crossiants/pastries/breads/sandwiches
Or post some details about what you are looking for and I'll try to point you in the right direction. -

oops forgot there is also the National Gallery - there is a big Van Gogh exhibit on now.

This shampoo is so natural and lathers so well and the price is great. It's great for daily use and has a mild scent.

I was having trouble with breakouts on my neck and drain line around my face so I searched for an organic shampoo that was as close to real shampoo as possible because I wanted the lather. This is the best I have found, still lathers like regular shampoo, has a great scent and cleans my hair great (I have really long hair). And the best part is no more breaking out. The price cannot be beat here.

I just got off the Magic a week ago and was able to speak to several crew about her drydock. She will drydock in Fincantieri and will undergo extensive refurb to include all rooms being redone, the crew area is getting a new look to include some features from the Dream/Fantasy. Topsiders and Parrot Cay are going to be refurbed. Animators is also expected to be upgraded to match the Dream/Fantasy. All new carpeting throughout the ship too. I asked if the horn will be upgraded but never did get an answer. Nobody said anything about stretching her but who knows. Also, next year the Wonder is scheduled for a long drydock to receive the same refurb and upgrades. Didn't hear where though.
They will not be adding a new mid section to the Magic. If that was in the works, it would be all over the Maritime and ship biulding news. Not to mention they would have to be biulding the midsection now ! AKK
I would say most likely it will. I believe most of the extended drydocks for ships are done in Europe. I don't know that Freeport can handle extensive drydock work.
These pics were found online by Disney Cruise Blog... so... maybe these will be the designs... Here are some of the potential renderings... Cabanas (topsiders/beach blanket) Parrot Cay The Spa
I wonder when the Magic goes into dry dock if they will do an enclosed Outlook like the Wonder (I know now weight limits are the issue) and have the Magic go to Alaska while the Wonder is being refurbed. Might tie in with the recently sighted 9-night Alaska cruise listing (something special).
OMG such a great idea! I think you're onto something here. We'll be on the Magic before the drydock. Sorta really bummed about that. But if the Magic gets an Outlook Cafe and it totally gets refurbed....we'd be so there for a 9-night Alaskan cruise.
This has been mentioned before. We shall certainly see soon. Lets remember the Dream is due in 2014 for its 1st dry dock as well. Grant it, it will be the short 2-week dry dock, but a dry dock nonetheless.i don't think they'll send her to Europe. Probably Norfolk or Freeport or somewhere close. The 3 & 4 night cruises are the bread & butter if DCL, so she won't be out too long. Sent from my iPhone using DISBoards
I can't imagine DCL intentionally planning any kind of dry dock, long or short, over summer months. This is their short window where they can charge triple the price of a Sept cruise and get away with it. I would guess it's from Labor Day-ish to Christmas.
Or in Caldiz, Spain like has been rumored? They'd just switch places for the year so the Wonder can go get prettied up.
Wow those pictures are gorgeous! I am kinda bummed that we'll be the last people on the ship before the reno...but like I said, it's just a reason to book another cruise afterwards.
Here's to hoping rumors are just rumors, could not imagine losing the look of the original animators. Don't care for animators on the dream. A lot of people sail the Magic and Wonder because they prefer these ships over the Dream and Fantasy, why would they want to risk losing this large following ?
I seriously doubt that following is "large" enough to make a difference. If it was, DCL wouldn't change a thing. People like shiny new things. I think that DCL did such a good job on the Dream and Fantasy, that they made the Wonder and Magic look subpar.
True. Just like one poster on the Dis once complained that the new decking material of the Magic isn't real teak wood anymore, an old time traditional wood often used in boat/ship building. I noticed it (my dad is a long time boaty) but it's not such a big deal that I would stop cruising the Magic over it but this guy was freaking out. I do hope that they realize people appreciate the differences between the Magic class ships & the Dream class. It's not just about the size. I don't want them to make a mini version of the Dream but it doesn't need some updating.

A key role in the successful implementation of any learning approach is played by teachers, so how well blended learning works will depend largely on how well teachers make the transition from their traditional face-to-face classroom roles to the wider more complex role that blended learning requires. The additional skills and the forging of a new professional identity might not come easily to all practitioners.
This paper evaluates the impact that the introduction of blended learning in a distance language learning course has had on teachers. It presents and discusses findings from a small-scale evaluation study which compared quantitative and qualitative data gathered through a survey and a small number of interviews with participant observations from the researcher and the institutional end-of-course debriefing report.
The paper argues that whilst technological challenges and the sheer amount of change that teachers were faced with were largely responsible for some of the negative attitudes reflected in teachers' opinions about the course, a less obvious, broader explanation for the difficulties that teachers encountered might be found in the way that learning, teaching and training are conceptualised by both teachers and the institution.
It is proposed that a transmission of knowledge approach to training fails to acknowledge and properly support the transformation of teachers' identity that results from moving from traditional classroom-based teaching to online teaching. The shift goes beyond the acquisition of ICT skills and requires a pedagogical understanding of the affordances of the new medium and an acceptance by the teacher of his or her new role and identity.

05 Apr 2004
The police force in Kyoto, Japan, have suggested that a virus might be responsible for sensitive information regarding criminal investigations being leaked onto the internet.
A total of 19 documents, including investigation reports and a list of "wanted" suspects, prepared by a police officer on his private laptop computer have appeared on internet peer-to-peer file-sharing systems.
The officer, based at the Shimogamo Police Station in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto, mentioned twenty individuals in the documents - at least 11 of which were names of actual persons according to police. According to one report, the officer entered into the documents detailed descriptions of the crimes, alongside the names, addresses, birthdays and other personal data of people believed to be involved.
"The police authorities in Japan have claimed that the sensitive files have been accidentally leaked onto the internet via file-sharing software or a virus," said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos. "The police force will regret giving permission for this officer to use his personal computer for this kind of work. All computers used for business should be properly secured to avoid 'data leakage', and there should be strict policies regarding whether internet file-sharing should be acceptable on a work computer."
Kyoto police, who only found out about the incident when their public relations department was informed, have said they have a policy of prohibiting officers from saving information that they learn in the line of their duty to the hard drives of their personal computers. The officer concerned is being questioned about the alleged violation.
Sophos recommends companies protect their email gateways, desktops and servers with an automatically updated consolidated solution to defend against the threats of viruses, spyware and spam.
More than 100 million users in 150 countries rely on Sophos as the best protection against complex threats and data loss. Sophos is committed to providing complete security solutions that are simple to deploy, manage, and use and that deliver the industry's lowest total cost of ownership. Sophos offers award-winning encryption, endpoint security, web, email, mobile and network security solutions backed by SophosLabs - a global network of threat intelligence centers.

MIT Group Stirs the BEC
In a recent article in Physical Review Letters, Wolfgang Ketterle's group describes how they
studied the nucleation of vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate stirred by a laser beam. They
were able to see the vortex cores by using time-of-flight absorption imaging. Either a discrete
resonance or a broad response of the condensate was visible as the stir frequency was varied,
depending on the size of the stirring beam. Because stirring beams small compared to the
condensate size generated vortices below the critical rotation frequency for the nucleation
of surface modes, a local mechanism of vortex generation is suggested. The group also observed
centrifugal distortion of the condensate due to the rotating vortex lattice and found evidence
for bent vortices.
The article "Vortex Nucleation in a Stirred Bose-Einstein Condensate" by C. Raman, J. R. Abo-Shaeer,
J. M. Vogels, K. Xu, and W. Ketterle (Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 210402 (2001)) is available

Association between fish consumption and nephropathy in American Indians--the Strong Heart Study. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 21742515 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
OBJECTIVE: The present study examined the association between fish consumption and nephropathy in American Indians. METHODS: In the family cohort of the Strong Heart Study, we investigated 2,261 participants with baseline examination between 2001 and 2003 and follow-up examination between 2006 and 2008. The average follow-up period was 5.4 years. We defined fish consumption as the sum of dietary intake of tuna, fried fish, and nonfried fish obtained from a validated food frequency questionnaire. Nephropathy was defined as microalbuminuria (urinary albumin-creatinine ratio [ACR]: 30 to 299 mg/g), macroalbuminuria (urinary ACR: ≥ 300 mg/g), or an estimated glomerular filtration rate of <60 mL/min/1.73 m(2). Using regression models, we examined the association between fish consumption measured at baseline and 2 outcomes in nephropathy present at follow-up, albuminuria, or renal impairment, and change in urinary ACR or estimated glomerular filtration rate between baseline and follow-up examinations. RESULTS: The prevalence of microalbuminuria, macroalbuminuria, and renal impairment was 13%, 3%, and 4%, respectively. The fish items consumed by the participants were predominantly deep-fried. We found no associations between fish consumption and any measure of nephropathy after adjusting for demographic, clinical, lifestyle, and dietary factors. CONCLUSIONS: Dietary intake of predominantly fried fish was not associated with a lower risk of nephropathy in American Indians. |

The Brothers Johnson – Strawberry Letter 23 (MaMMaLs Remix)
Yesterday we received an email from Lisa, the Talent Manager of MaMMaLs, she wanted us to check out their latest production. After listening to We Ready and viewing the MaMMaLs Mid-Summer Tour (promo video), I knew that I had to listen to more of their work. Basically, MaMMaLs is made up of two young DJs, Austin (17) and Nick (16) who are both Juniors in High School. Their focus is on Dubstep and making music for the masses. When I listened to some of their original releases from over a year ago, it dawns on me that they had to be between 15 and 16 years of age when they first started pumping these out. I am always impressed when I hear good music come from such young DJs. You can see what influences the next generation and where that music may head over the next few years. I'm glad Dubstep will continue through Austin and Nick.
Quite possibly my favorite piece of theirs is the remix of Strawberry Letter 23 by The Brothers Johnson (written by Shuggie Otis). This 70′s Funk track is not one that I ever expected to hear Dubstep on. Just when you get worried that classic music will be lost on tomorrow's generation, you hear something like this and hope for the future is instantly restored. Another impressive production is Mind Is Everything with a vocal sampling from Kai Greene. This is a Drum n Bass piece that shows off their true abilities and talents as a young duo. This is a sound that I can really enjoy, a lot of simple synths in here with a good balance of Drumstep.
These two have already developed quite the following on Facebook and Twitter (@MaMMaLsDubstep). They have also performed with the likes of Rusko, Flux Pavilion, Datsik, Figure, Zeds Dead, Mord Fustang, Zomboy, Adventure Club, and more! I highly recommend watching the video of their mid-summer tour, it gives you a feel for who these guys are off the stage.

*More a 'horse behaviour' question- HELP* my horse, i got yesterday is in the field. he grazed non stop for about 2 hours and now hes galloping around and hes been doing this since 10 this morning its now half 12 :s i think hes just unsettled being in a strange place, how long will it take him to settle? oh and he has to stay in all day tommorow |
Horses are herd animals by nature and should always have some type of companion whether it be a pony, goat, or another horse. Without really seeing the situation I can only come to some guesses 1) He's lonely and wants a companion, and his galloping around is him trying to find another "herd" to join 2) He's never been in a large pasture (my horse did this when I bought him...he was kept in a stall all his life and when I turned him outside in a large pasture he ran for hours) 3) Something is frightening him whether it be the new place or the scary horse eating patch of grass in the pasture or something like that Is he calling out also? How is his body? Tense? Head arched? Eyes wide? As for how long will it take until he settles in, it totally depends on the horse. Some horses it takes a few minutes, others it can take as long as a month to set in. Why does he have to stay in all day tomorrow? Best thing in my opinion that is, is to keep them outside where it's natural for them and healthier for them :) Best of luck to you! |
were probably going to get a goat or some goats, our field is smaller than the one he was in at his last home (i think), hes not frightened but i think he is looking for a companion. He winnies when i go out to see him :P oh and he has to stay in because we are having our fencing done |
He'll quit when he gets tired. let him do it as long as he's not paniced and going to hurt himself. |
As you have indicated, most likely he is missing his mates and he feels very insecure. That is to be expected. (My mare puts her head down and seems to graze all day) Tomorrow make sure he has plenty of hay. Whilst he is excited don't feed him anything heating. Hay should be enough and maybe an apple or two. (presumably you asked the old owner about his daily routine and what he normally has to eat - if anything other than grass) Make sure he has plenty of water. Try grooming him - but only if he will let you. Just be careful - he is obviously upset - so he won't be rational. Keep out of the way of his feet. It may take some time for him to settle - there is no fast rule. Give him as much of your time as you can. Start making friends with him. Calm, quiet, firm, voice. Stroke him. Best of luck with your new horse. |

It's a constant battle: medicine versus herbs. This is how Marguerite got interested in herbs.
In every issue of Herbs for Health, professionals from a variety of health-care fields answer your questions about using medicinal herbs. Medical doctor Robert Rountree and herbalist Daniel Gagnon responded for this issue.
My sister-in-law has varicose veins, which she got while pregnant. I'd like to know if there are herbs to assist her with this problem.N. R.Montecito, California
Both pregnancy and chronic constipation can lead to persistent increases in the pressure inside the superficial veins of the legs and rectal area. This pressure stretches out the walls of these veins and damages their valves, thus creating varicosities or hemorrhoids. While it is difficult to completely reverse this kind of damage, there are several supplements I have found useful, either alone or in combination:
• Proanthocyanidins are a group of plant flavonoids extracted from grape seeds, pine bark, and bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus). In addition to being potent antioxidants, they increase the strength and tone of blood vessel walls by enhancing collagen cross-linkage. A typical dose is 50 to 150 mg daily.• Collinsonia root (Collinsonia canadensis)—a traditional remedy for hemorrhoids—probably works by a mechanism similar to proanthocyanidins. I usually prescribe 1 to 2 droppersful of tincture daily for two or three months.• Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) contains a variety of compounds that have been shown in many studies to improve venous insufficiency and varicose veins by strengthening connective tissue. The standardized solid extract is the most potent form; it is used in a dose of 60 to 120 mg daily.• Butcher's broom (Ruscus aculeatus) is a kind of lily with a long history of use for venous problems; it acts as a vasoconstrictor. In addition to oral preparations, it is available as a cream which can be applied two or three times a day.—Robert Rountree
It is common for pregnant women to develop varicose veins from carrying the extra weight of a child. Varicose veins (veins which lose their muscle tone) can occur from pressure on the pelvis in the latter part of pregnancy. When undue pressure is put on the veins, valves that control the blood flow toward the heart can collapse, causing the blood to pool and veins to distend.
Herbs that can help varicose veins include butcher's broom, as well as horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum). Butcher's broom constricts the smooth muscles of the walls of distended blood vessels. This action rapidly decreases blood pooling and increases blood flow back to the heart and through the veins. Butcher's broom also is used to prevent thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, heavy feeling in the legs, calf cramping, edema, and hemorrhoids. Horse chestnut contains bioflavonoids that strengthen the capillaries and veins and prevent blood from stagnating. It also increases blood circulation and especially assists blood flow back to the heart. Horse chestnut can also be taken to treat nighttime muscle cramps.—Daniel Gagnon
Robert Rountree, M.D., is a physician at the Helios Health Center, co-author of Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child, and an advisory board member for the Herb Research Foundation.
Daniel Gagnon is a medical herbalist living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He is a professional member of the American Herbalist Guild, vice-chairman of the American Herbal Products Association, and owner of an herbal retail store in Santa Fe.

Police on Wednesday announced the arrest of a suspect in the sexual assault of a woman on a Miami street.
Terence Jefferson, 33, is accused of assaulting and robbing a woman at gunpoint as she sat in a car Dec. 30 in an Upper Eastside neighborhood, Northeast Ninth Avenue at 86th Street.
Miami Police Chief Manuel Orosa made the announcement of the arrest on Wednesday.
The woman was in the car setting her GPS when a man jumped in and drove to an abandoned house. He threatened her with a gun and then sexually assaulted her, according to the arrest report.
Jefferson was jailed two weeks ago in a separate robbery case.
Authorities said the case was solved with the help of two schoolgirls who were robbed a day after the sexual assault of the woman. The girls were walking in the area of Northeast 80th Street and Seventh Avenue when a man approached. He took the girls' belongings and drove off.

Left out in the cold? New energy tariffs, low-income households and the fuel poor
UNSPECIFIED. (2002) Left out in the cold? New energy tariffs, low-income households and the fuel poor. FISCAL STUDIES, 23 (2). pp. 167-194. ISSN 0143-5671
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Two new gas tariffs were introduced in 2000, with contrasting effects. One abolished a fixed standing charge, while the other, specifically targeted at low-income consumers, introduced a preset charge, independent of fuel consumption, for eligible consumers. We analyse the effect of the abolition of the standing charge on different household groups, including the fuel poor, the cur-rent focus of government and regulatory policy. We find that while low-income groups have benefited more than others from abolition of the standing charge, the fuel poor have gained less than average. We contrast this with the other targeted preset charge scheme.

Why would anybody get these?!?!?!? The 50 Worst NFL Fan Tattoos Of All Time
It just goes to show that there are morons in every NFL fanbase. Some of those are even bad for jailhouse tats.
"There are five real good recruits in the state. We got three of them. One couldnt get into school, and the other went to (the University of) Iowa...which is about the same thing." - Coach Johnny Orr
That Patriots one was pretty bad. Tebow Time was too
Do people think before getting tattoos? I'm not against tattoos, I have one and plan on getting another, but please think before you get it
That Steeler tat looks like it was done by a 5 year old.
They say country music speaks to the heart. Unfortunately, it has to go through your ears to get there.
I'm a Packer fan, but that one with the Packer player going "jailhouse romance" on the Lions player? WRONG!

Property of the Raiders guy had a goatee/stache tattooed on. Made me laugh out loud.

Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Few twentieth-century physicists contribute usefully to more than one fairly specialized area of the subject, and those that do are usually theorists. Landau and Feynman are particularly striking examples but others, too, have found that their theoretical tools developed to deal with one particular problem (say superfluid helium) can also be applied fruitfully in other apparently unrelated areas of the discipline (the structure of neutron stars, for example). The situation for experimental physicists is quite different, in that their skills tend to be less portable. Most of them spend their entire careers working within, or close to, the same narrow specialism that they entered in their twenties. There are some notable exceptions, of course, and none more notable than W.M. (Bill) Fairbank of Stanford University in whose honour Near Zero has been compiled.

Nice discussion by several thinkers of the role of higher education in promoting economic inequality:
I tend to agree with this guy:
The Problem is Elsewhere
By George Leef
Higher education has only a little to do with the apparent decline in social mobility in the United States.
The main reason for the decline is that an array of federal, state, and local policies has increased the cost and difficulty for poorer people to improve themselves. Our national arteriosclerosis is a result of the growing burden of regulations that make it more difficult for poor people to start businesses on their own or find job openings with good career paths. Local business regulations, state licensing mandates, and federal minimum-wage and other rules have all made our economy more rigid than it once was, with a strongly disparate impact on the poor.
What role does higher education play in this? Only a minor one. Despite all the talk about how college education is supposed to add to a person's human capital (sometimes it adds much, but often little or nothing), the educational level of the work force has nothing to do with the kinds of jobs created in the economy. No matter how high "educational attainment" reaches in our society, there will always be a great many jobs that do not require any advanced academic study or training—and won't pay any better just because the worker has gone to college.
On the other hand there is this:
Growing Elitism
By Thomas J. Espenshade
On balance, elite higher education helps maintain social inequality in America, and the economic recession is magnifying that problem, especially at public institutions.
During the past two decades, research that Alexandria Walton Radford and I conducted found that a rising proportion of students who are enrolled at selective colleges and universities has come from the top two social-class categories: upper-middle- and upper-class families. And at the private institutions we studied, there is a pronounced upward slope to the relationship between the probability of being admitted and the socioeconomic status of one's family.
When one considers the positive economic rate of return of a college education—and especially of a degree from a name-brand institution—it is easy to see how selective private higher education confers, concentrates, and consolidates privilege for students who have grown up in well-to-do circumstances.
People with college educations tend to make significantly more than people who do not have such educations and unemployment is generally lower for the college educated relative to those who lack such education. Education thus seems important to advancing or at least holding ground.
Unfortunately, education costs have increased steadily and financial aid has declined in many states-thus making it more difficult for those with less wealth to attend college or send their kids to school.
As such, it would seem that education is a relevant factor.
While this oversimplifies things, one main problem has been the escalation in cost. Before he retired, a friend of mine did an analysis of the data at FSU and found that the largest increase was in administration. Roughly put, bureaucratic bloat is bloating the price of education. Interestingly, this has been partially the result of universities explicitly adopting certain business models of operation.
Oddly enough, the attempts to address budget woes in education generally aim at cutting the meat-that is, getting rid of adjuncts, faculty and staff who do the work that makes the university function. This is, of course, not surprising: the people who handle the administration make the decisions about the money and control the flow of information from the university to the state.
None of my friends or I moved down. We all stayed in our class or moved up. Maybe we should all be studied for our exceptionalism.
But generally we're becoming dumber as a people. Yes, I believe that.
It might be that we are just relatively dumber-that is, other countries have moved ahead of us.
As evidence of our growing stupidity, I present this article in Foreign Policy magazine in which Gen.(Ret) McChrystal advocates a return to the draft in times of war. Then read the comments posted by readers. One would think FP would have intelligence comments, but as I say in my comment: Its like reading YouTube comments from people with college degrees.
People should read this essay, "The Plague of Ideas", for a plausible explanation for the dumbing down of America.
Actually, some sort of draft or national service would be a great idea. No exceptions.
This is how the Romans and Greeks did it. And I think it would help with the 30 year old adolescent problem we have in America. In my opinion, this country was made by better people than we are now, and many of us are acting like Paris Hilton, the spoiled, idiotic inherite' of millions.
From today's Wall Street Journal:
Critics today often point to the 1950s as the last years before American society became so divided between haves and have-nots. At the end of that decade, America's "Gini coefficient"—the most common measure of income inequality, running from 0 (least unequal) to 1 (most unequal)—was 0.37. Today it is 0.45.
But in 1959, more than 20% of families fell below the poverty line. In 2010 that figure was just over 13%. Real per capita GDP today is 270% higher than it was in 1959. A family in the bottom fifth of the income distribution today makes the same amount in real terms as a family earning the median income in 1950. So inequality might have increased, but so too—dramatically—has quality of life.
Even over the last two decades, while real income has essentially stagnated for the bottom fifth of earners, basic conveniences have become far more affordable. In 1992, only 20% of American families below the poverty line had a dishwasher—50% had air conditioning and 60% owned a microwave. When the Census Bureau last surveyed these figures in 2005, those figures were 37%, 79% and 91%, respectively. Critics who minimize the importance of these conveniences likely have never had to do without them.

Under his leadership, Mars built the worlds largest candy company. After Milky Ways and M&Ms success, he began to diversify the companys production and introduced packaged pet foods to the British market. He also adopted a revolutionary method of processing rice which he used to create Uncle Bens. By the early 1970s, his candy business amounted to about $200 million in the United States with an additional $55 million in Britain. Of the ten top selling candy bars in the United States, five were sold by Mars (including Snickers at #1).

Have you ever awakened one morning and thought, '' I need more blue ''. The color blue that is. Well, I did this morning. Let me explain, so here we are looking at the stairs leading up to the master bedroom, bath, and deck.
Now we have the color choices and the formula, crazy I know more blue, Lord have mercy, enough already. So I thought, ok Kevin, you've done this many years ago to a client's staircase and loved it, and you've seen it a million times in Mexico, not to mention in pictures. But kids, it's a whole different story when it's your own staircase.
Now, what do you think? If your wondering if I got the color blue out of my system, I did, at least until next week.
